Struffoli is a traditional Italian Christmas dessert, particularly popular in the South of the country. It is made by mixing flour, eggs, butter, sugar, and a splash of anise, then cooking the small pieces of dough in hot oil and glazing them with honey and lemon zest. Struffoli are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, perfect to enjoy during the holidays.

Knead carefully and form into sticks, cut them into small pieces and fry them in hot oil
Melt 5 tablespoons of sugar over the heat, add the honey and struffoli, and stir for 10 minutes
